Amahl63 This is a very cleverly thought-out movie.At first I was unsure as to whether it was a doc or fictional film. Are the characters 'real' or actors?As it progresses, the viewer becomes increasingly absorbed in the direction of events and in the sacrifices involved in maintaining the enduring friendship between the 2 main protagonists Tomas and Haris.The film made me wish I'd taken my film-making hobby to a greater level! Two special memories: firstly, the football coach selecting his own kin above unrelated boys who have greater talent!; secondly, the moments when Tomas looks directly into the camera (giving us a wordless message) is never over-played (the film would undoubtedly be denigrated if that were the case) - great direction!
